Although this website is not one designed for the aid of historical research or more specifically that of genealogy, the number of queries that I am receiving has given me cause to consider this area of interest. I am not an historian and much of the work in this section of the site is the work of another. But I have provided links to resources which others may find useful.
At the bottom of the the page I have provided an opportunity for you to offer suggestions of further resources which could be added to this page.
